Summary
[edit]DescriptionSeattle - the Horseshoe bar - 1900.jpg |
"Interior of the 'Horseshoe" from brochure Seattle and the Orient (1900). The Horseshoe was Seattle's "most elegant saloon" at the time. (The Argus [Seattle], December 29, 1900, p. 1, quoted by Greg Lange, Twentieth century begins in Washington state on January 1, 1901, HistoryLink, December 29, 1999.) Apparently the Horseshoe moved some time in 1899 or 1900, and I don't know whether this is the old or new venue. Polk's Seattle City Directory 1899 (Polk's Seattle Directory Co., 1899), shows the Horseshoe Saloon as being at 614 First Avenue. The cited Argus quote from the end of 1900 refers to "The new Horseshoe, at 703 First avenue". |
